TESC Transcripts

I know this, but I'm assuming that if you have a psychology degree, then employers will look for a psychology course code; or if you have a business degree, it's pretty obvious which courses are business courses. My social science courses aren't so obvious because some of my criminal justice courses were considered social science and some weren't; and, social science is also an area that is always included in general education. Also, TESC does not put the course equivalencies on the transcripts like at two of the community colleges I attended. I have a DAAC course that is the equivalent of TESC's SOS Substance Abuse and I have a human resource course that was counted as a psychology course, but that will not be noted on the transcript. Another thing TESC does differently is that is do not list the grades of the transfer courses; of course, this could be remedied by showing my other transcripts. But I took a look at my other transcripts and, even though they did not include my transfer courses in the calculation of my institutional GPA, they did list the letter grades on the transcript. TESC's unofficial transcript that is on Online Student Services looks more like the other transcripts I have than TESC's official transcript format. What will be annoying is that I will have to show employers several transcripts with the letter grades and point out which courses from each were included in the area of study because my credits came from several different sources. It would be nice if my TESC transcript just included everything like at the two CCs I attended. I'm seriously thinking about sending the credits I've accumulate since leaving one of my CCs to that CC just so they can evaluate them and include them on my transcript. In that way, I will have all of my grades in one place and I will only have to show employers my TESC transcript or diploma and one CC transcript instead of a total of five from all of the colleges I've attended.
